Summary

Main objective: Therapeutic follow-up study Evaluate the clinical and biological safety of valproate administered as microgranules, under standard prescription conditions, with therapeutic follow-up and individual dosage adjustment, using valproate plasma concentrations and antiepileptic comedication as well as biological assays.

Secondary objectives: Ancillary population kinetics study

* Estimate the pharmacokinetic parameters of valproate administered as microgranules under standard therapeutic conditions within the population studied, from the therapeutic follow-up data.
* Evaluate the influence of individual characteristics on the pharmacokinetic parameters.
* Describe the relationship between plasma concentrations and adverse events for valproate and the main anti-epileptic comedications.
